(12/27/2004) 2R yesterday attended an idol impersonation contest. Race revealed that her impersonation ability was decent. "When I was four we went to Thailand to see the transvestite show. I was great at impersonating transvestites! I am the best at playing half male half female. I can be very professional. Earlier at Grandma's birthday I performed for her." Race said that she was rather good at pretending to be a turtle. "The most important is to squint and to pout and your whole face is being pulled." Rosanne revealed that they spent Christmas with their family in Singapore. "We had all kinds of food. When we come back we have to hit the gym. Mommy gave me a ring and a handbag to my sister. I gave "us" to Daddy and a necklace to Mommy."

2R is from Singapore but is still affected by the tsunami. "Our family lives in Singapore and hasn't been affected, but our hometown is near Malaysia and Thailand, on an island called Terranganu. Because it's very close to the ocean, every year it floods at the end of the year. This year has been especially severe. My cousin still lives there but luckily everyone is fine." 2R pointed out that every year the flood would enter the car and home and their father had to spend money to tow the car back home after the flood carried it away.

I think their singing is okay. However, i like Rosanne more than Race, i think Rosanne is more prettier than Race. I think Race sometime overreact a bit whilst talking and stuff.

Yeah, a bit because they're from like Malaysia, and even their cantonese isn't that great, they still speak it with a bit of an accent (which is why some people don't like them). Also, the trivia part often requires knowing quite a bit of chinese, or a lot about Hong Kong, hard for anyone not from Hong kong. Also the part with the This is so easy...naming stuff to a category, you have to know a variety of chinese phrases. And the worst is where one person has to describe the phrase, because those are almost all Cantonese slang, so 2R has almost no clue.

I think Race has a very whinny Cantonese voice and she isn't good at acting (as seen in Four Leafs), but her singing isn't too bad...
To me, Rosanne is prettier than Race, although Race has a cuter face.

isn't that cause mandarin is their first language? but they're learning cantonese to expand into the hong kong market and it's not bad, it's definitely improving, but i think race's cantonese is better than rosanne's though, cause she has bigger/better roles in movies and series

i'd say they're cantonese is pretty good considering that they weren't raised in HK, and i think race is really cute, i thought the way she was talking in HOF was quite cute, i don't think it was whiny, i thought mun mun's speech at the beginning of HOF was really whiny but it was meant to sound like that.. can't get enough of race now after watching HOF

cause they probably think they have a better chance of succeeding in the hk market cause, no offense to any of their fans, with their looks, regardless of whether or not they have talent, they'd probably make it decently far

Rosanne is just learning Canto. because she mainly spoke in Mandarin before. So her Canto isn`t as fluent as Race`s.
I think Race is much cuter and prettier than Rosanne. But it doesn't mean i don't like Rosanne or anything. I think she is more mature. She is pretty too but not as pretty as Race. I like when Race speaks Cantonese, it's kinda weird but sounds cute to me too.

2R is a replica of Twins except they're actual sisters. Their chinese is so off I don't even know how they can manage to sing. I've heard a few of their songs and immediately I was annoyed by the mispronunciation and accent.
But I guess it's good to have them since they do show the faces of mature, when frowning or showing a serious face, and they are improving on their chinese.

Feb 12 2005 10 38 PM
can i just say its not actually their fault that they cant get the tone right, they had to learn contonese and its not unusual for them to be out of tone, just think about it, i mean try singing in a foreign language, i'd bet you'd be out of tune. People should just give them a try, when their cantonese get better they'll probably sing better
also its stupid how everyone is comparing 2R to Twins.
most people just come into this forum to slag off 2R for copying Twins, but thats only an opinionated twins devoted view.
eveyone is entitled to their own views but lets just keep this forum for people who have nice things to say about 2R, keep it a 2R fan thread! not a hater thread.

true true..
but me personally, i'm anti-2R. not comparing them with twins or anything but they really need to learn to speak chinese. I mean, Hey! you're right, they had to learn cantonese. BUT, if you can't speak cantonese, they WHY BECOME A CHINESE SINGER?
but other than speaking of course, i think they're not bad looking. Rosanne, being the prettier one.
Race? i think she's acceptable.

I totally agree. I think most people like Race more, since you see her more, and most of you guys have seen HOF, and everyone likes her character. But keep it in mind that isn't her, she's in role as somebody else.
I think Race is okay, but her acting is sometimes really exaggerated, if you know what i mean - unnatural.
Also, Race talks more in interviews than Rosanne.

Not being out of order or anything. But if they can't sing cantonese very well - which i think they are okay. Then why become a cantonese singer. And not for example become an Taiwanese singer in Taiwan. But then again, that's their decision.

2R yesterday attended a video game event. They said that while they are not at work they love to play video games, but Race loses every time. When asked whether she went to video game arcades when they were at school, they said, "You can't go with the school uniforms! You can't date either! When people see you they will call the school and complain."

QUOTE (kay_z83 @ Jul 23 2004 8 19 AM)
They hailed from Singapore and Mandarin and English are the main language. Although most Singaporean Chinese do speak other dialects...
As few Singaporeans speak Cantonese, you can observe some pronounciation flaws from Race's character, 'Lam Lam' in HOF.
I believe they are formerly Malaysians before they became Singapore Residents
so their accent is more of a Malaysian accent cos they knew how to speak English, Malay, Cantonese and Mandrain...

so i guess we have to be patient for them to improve in their singing and cantonese

2R yesterday attended a contact lens event to promote the importance of eye health. Rosanne had a horrifying experience with contact lenses. "Once I had them on the whole day and my eyes were very dry. When I took them out, they were like stuck to my cornea and my eyes were all red right away like a gold fish. I went to the emergency room right away. The doctor used three big bottles of salt water to wash my eyes then wrapped them. At the time I was worried that I would become blind." Race said that when she was little she had thick glasses and people made fun of her as "four eyes". "They even called me an old spinster. Thus contact lenses were the greatest invention."
